Hi Guys,

Unfortunately, I can't justify keeping this car so she has to go. I haven't even put 3000kms on her since registration. much of that while it was on loan to a friend who was having dramas with his own Emo 6.5

I imported this car from Japan after searching for a super clean, stock standard car with genuine low kms.

It arrived 100% stock standard. The only thing I have done to it since that is non standard is to fit the genuine 17" x 8.5" Volk TE37 rims.

Since the car arrived the following has been carried out by Tech Sport and you are welcome to contact them to verify this and the cars condition.

Gearbox removed and synchros replaced (known weakpoint on this model, the 2nd to 3rd synchro was graunchy, so I fixed it and replaced the others at the same time)

New disks and pads, flushed brake fluid and replaced with Motul RBF600

Full AYC service

All fluids replaced

Timing belt service carried out (a forgotten expense when importing, but failure to do this will result in a lunched engine)

Brand new tyres

New Kenwood Headunit (as the Japanese headunits don't work here - another forgotten expense - currently out so I can put in the Parrot bluetooth extension)

Interior and exterior detailed.

This car is in truly excellent condition with only minor blemishes on the lower front and rear lips and I think you would struggle to find another one this good at this price. You could import one cheaper, but then have to spend $5k plus doing all the stuff I've already done - along with the wait of several months! Any inspection welcome. Test drives at my discretion. I understand that this car is at the pointy end of the price range for a stock standard Evo 6, I am negotiable of course - and quite realistic, but the car won't be given away nor sold for what your cousins mate could import one for with sick mods and no compliance problems bro - as per my comments, all the annoying and expensive shit is done - doubt you'd import one, then get all the extra done for the same money.

If you are in the market for a super clean, stock standard Evo 6 with no headaches - this is the one. New plugs, fully serviced, new tyres and brakes - just turn the key and enjoy it. It is available for viewing during business hours at Monster HQ. It can be viewed in Croydon North after hours by prior arrangement. The car lives at the shop as the GT-R gets pride of place in the garage at home ;) )

You can contact me via email to [email protected] - phone at the shop on 0390080031 or via PM :)

$21000 ono

Cheers

Aaron

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
